Subject: RE: UK catters Please Read From: SueH Date: 09 Jul 01 - 05:46 AM We are in hertfordshire, where we also run a folk club. On June 30th we ran our first free one-day festival, on similar lines to the one in Northampton. It went even better than we could have dreamt, with hundreds of people coming along to support it. Hopefully we'll see some of you there next year! SueH |

Subject: RE: UK catters Please Read From: Dave the Gnome Date: 09 Jul 01 - 06:36 AM There are at least 6 other 'mancs' not mentioned as well - unless thay have PM'd directly. Out of interest, when looking for a venue for an 'England wide' event we decided on Stratford on Avon and it worked well. Lots of Accom. as well. Not as good for the Scottish contingent though. I would, of course, recommend Manchester as being the centre of the universe if we want to count everybody;-) Cheers DtG |

Subject: RE: UK catters Please Read From: bill\sables Date: 09 Jul 01 - 06:45 AM Geordie Broon has an idea of exclusivly renting a youth hostel out of season for a gathering, it would probably only cost about £10 per person for a weekend plus food. He mentioned a medievel castle with about 70 bedrooms and large venues for ceilidh, singarounds and sessions. Dinner is about £4 and breakfast about £3. I think it should be somewhere within easy access from either the M6, M1, or A1 but wherever it is it will probably be after the festival season. Bill |

Subject: RE: UK catters Please Read From: Louisa Date: 09 Jul 01 - 12:15 PM Stratford very good idea. Is very close to Coventry where I live! Castle sounds nice too. |
Subject: RE: UK catters Please Read From: Jim Cheydi Date: 09 Jul 01 - 12:54 PM No, no, no, no. Absolutely not. |
Subject: RE: UK catters Please Read From: selby Date: 09 Jul 01 - 01:05 PM Earlier this year we went to a festival at Moira in the heart of the New National Forest. It is just off the east end of the M42. Nice place and pretty Central, although own transport I think would be neccassary. Other than that York,s not too bad a place to get to. Keith |

Subject: RE: UK catters Please Read From: Ivan Date: 09 Jul 01 - 03:39 PM I'm in Fleetwood, Lancashire. A suggestion re the location: A uni campus somewhere with main rail and bus links. Most of them let out the halls of residence rooms in summer. Maybe too late for this year though. |
Subject: RE: UK catters Please Read From: Llanfair Date: 09 Jul 01 - 05:27 PM Where is this castle, then? Is it far from Mid-Wales? Cheers, Bron. |

Subject: RE: UK catters Please Read From: Hawker Date: 09 Jul 01 - 06:29 PM I'm fine with Cornwall, but perhaps West Devon / North Cornwall border would be better! Great idea, love to get together with other catters! Lucy |
Subject: RE: UK catters Please Read From: bill\sables Date: 09 Jul 01 - 07:48 PM Jim Cheydi, Do you mean you don't want your name and county revealed or you don't mind if it is revealed. I will give this another week and if there are no serious objections I will post names and counties. Bill |
